phineasflye Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 does anybody out there have any info on how to paint cork poppers. I am thinking about getting an airbrush so Ican get real professional results in the finish.I was also wondering how to get the rubber legs in the body without damaging the paint job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavu Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 When I was making a lot of poppers, I just dipped them a few times in the pint of my choice the cleaned out the eye and those few I made that had rubber legs, just drilled and inserted the legs after the paint. I never went into much detail with the paint, maybe two colors. Found out the fish did not seem to care how much time and pains I took to impress them.

nate-o Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 hey or you could stick them in first before you paint and when you are painting just tape the legs over with masking tape so no paint gets on it. but if i were you and you are just making cork popper and flies i wouldn't get and airbrush you can just a easliy paint them by hand. so i would try tapping the legs off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
